Lambert High School is a public secondary school located outside the limits of Suwanee, Georgia, in Forsyth County, Georgia, a suburb northeast of Atlanta. It is the newest of five high schools in the Forsyth County School District. The school is a state-of-the-art facility, with an annual enrollment of about 2,500 students. Most students who attend Lambert reside in southern Forsyth County, an affluent area located near the border of Johns Creek. The students are drawn from Riverwatch Middle and South Forsyth Middle school. All the students from Riverwatch attend Lambert, about half the students from South Forsyth Middle go to Lambert. The school was built to alleviate over-crowding at South Forsyth High School, which is located 3.8 miles away, off Peachtree Parkway.
